Organ Donation

What is Organ Donation?

Organ Donation is when a person donates his/her organs (heart, liver, Kidneys etc.) for transplantation to the needy person to significantly improve his/her health and quality of life.

There are two types of organ donations: Living and Deceased. A living donation is when a living, medically compatible donor decides to donate his/ her organs to a recipient, normally a close relative, in dire need of a transplant.

Deceased donation is when organs from a person who has died because of brain death are transplanted into living recipients in need of a particular organ transplant.
